9781508414490: The Sources of Religious Insight

Synopsis

I come before you as a philosophical inquirer addressing a general audience of thoughtful people. This definition of my office implies from the outset very notable limitations. As a philosophical inquirer I am not here to preach to you, but to appeal to your own thoughtfulness. Again, since my inquiry concerns the Sources of Religious Insight, you will understand, I hope, that I shall not undertake to present to you any extended system of religious doctrine.-Josiah Royce

Review

"[This book] is thoroughly interesting alive. Prof. Royce 'writes for the man on the street.' His philosophy is popular because it is both vital and intelligible." - New York Times; "Not even the most strenuous pragmatist and pluralist can fail to recognize the moral and religious value of this earnest and eloquent book." - The Nation"
